I'm a 21-year-old girl from North India, and I've been noticing that my skin is wheatish overall, but my inner thighs and buttocks are quite a bit darker than the rest of my body. Is this something that's normal for most Indians? If not, can you suggest any ways to lighten those areas?

I'm using Skinlite cream, and its made my skin a lot fairer, but whenever I stop using it, my skin turns darker again. I've been seeing a doctor for about six months now, but my skin hasn't improved. My face is still darker, and I really dont know what to do next. Can you recommend any effective skin lightening creams or treatments? I'm getting really worried.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm having trouble finding this product, and I'm wondering if you could recommend something else with similar ingredients? It contains calamine, allantoin, and vitamin E lotion. What should I look for as a substitute?

You can consider substitutes like Calora Lotion or Calasoft, which have similar compositions, including calamine, allantoin, and vitamin E. These lotions provide relief from itching, promote skin healing, and offer moisturizing and antioxidant benefits. Always consult with a healthcare professional or pharmacist before switching to a new product.

I've been dealing with acne scars left from a breakout I had about three months ago. While the acne itself is gone, the scars have stuck around and I'm really looking for a cream or something that can help lighten and reduce them. Could you recommend something that works well for this? I'm feeling a bit self-conscious about these scars.
